Berlin, July 22, 2015 – Native Instruments today released LONE FOREST – a new MASCHINE Expansion aimed at producers working in dub techno and related styles. This expansion is the first to bring features from the recently-released MASCHINE 2.3 software update to MASCHINE. LONE FOREST is available now at the NI Online Shop, and works with all MASCHINE hardware running the MASCHINE 2.3 software. A compact version for iMASCHINE is also available via the iMASCHINE in-app store.

LONE FOREST captures the reverb-heavy sound of dub techno styles ranging from Scandinavian experimentalism to the darker, bleaker sound of Detroit and Berlin. With low basslines, dusty drums, and haunting atmospheres, this MASCHINE Expansion effectively captures the reverb-heavy sound of this intriguing genre. Exclusive MONARK presets appear for the first time, adding a rich, analog quality to this expansion. MONARK is part of KOMPLETE SELECT – included with the latest MASCHINE 2.3 update.
